“I cannot say enough about ForthRight People. They take the time to get to know you on a personal level—then they dive deep into how to best set you up for success. After every meeting, I left the conversation with a new way to look at and navigate the world around me. Their approach is honest but fair and very enlightening. It feels really good to work with people who are genuinely invested in my growth and development.”
— Remi W.“April is a phenomenal mentor, coach, and friend. No matter what is going on with my company and team, I leave our conversations feeling more confident, energized, and above all, with clear action items that help me navigate my immediate and long-term path. I feel incredibly fortunate to have her in my life and look forward to growing alongside her guidance in the coming months and years. Do yourself an enormous favor and work with her!”

MARKETING & COMMUNICATIONS STRATEGY
Huseman Group is a family of businesses that has traditionally operated independently in the built industry. But in order to realize their collective growth goals, they needed a compelling and united presence by which to scale.
A comprehensive brand strategy exercise took the essence of what has historically been valued about Huseman Group and then elevated and expressed it in a cohesive and compelling format. This was fueled with the creation of the Brand Foundation (Brand Story, Brand Character, Tone-of-Voice, Message Tracks, Creative Toolkit) as well as an Internal Brand (Mission, Vision, Values) at the Huseman Group level and for each businesses under the umbrella. This was deployed to employees in a way that could be internalized and shared both verbally and through marketing and sales tools.
Internal productivity has gone through the roof (pun intended), as teams now have a Brand Foundation they can relate and speak to. Their presence has become more tangible and attractive as their narrative has become clearer and more focused. They feel ready to scale and grow with their brand-led business strategy.

The Health Collaborative, a non-profit, required a brand lift to accommodate changes in their organization and purpose. Their goal was to elevate their relevance and value amongst their members and partner organizations.
We took a collaborative approach under our “coach-train-do” model to address their brand development needs. In partnership with their team, we developed the Internal Brand (Mission, Vision, Values) as well as the Brand Foundation (Brand Story, Brand Character, Tone-of-Voice, and Message Tracks). This proceeded into execution where we coached on website development. This approach allowed us to meet them where they were in terms of budget and resources while still achieving high-quality deliverables.
The organization is embracing the evolved Internal Brand and Brand Foundation and is rolling it out into additional efforts driving even more value amongst their members and partner organizations.
Personal Brand Development
Wearing many hats both personally and professionally meant an overall lack of Personal Brand clarity. This created siloed efforts, which were impeding her ability to create scaled awareness.
We created a personal brand identity that united all of her efforts into the marketable and ownable brand which is Leticia Latino. Then we translated this new Personal Brand into marketing assets, including a mood board, logo, colors, typography, secondary design elements and iconography, photography, brand story and tone-of-voice principles, all wrapped up into a Branding Toolkit.
A strong, consistent brand presence to support a refreshed website that is getting noticed and helping her build credibility and reputation.

Bethany School has long been recognized as a “hidden gem.” Unfortunately, this lack of awareness has resulted in declining admission and student retention. They wanted a refreshed brand identity to renew their recruitment and marketing efforts.
A competitive audit coupled with insights gathered during in-depth interviews helped define a unique place for Bethany to play. We translated this into a brand story, communications strategy, and visual and verbal toolkit, which become the basis for refreshed marketing materials including a prospective-parent newsletter, billboard, internal and external content, social posts, and other collateral used for campus events like open houses. Finally, we launched a brand new website, which focuses on appealing to prospective students.
The highest number of prospective students in recent history.
